Demian • Hermann Hesse“Let us cultivate our garden.”
Candide • Voltaire““Why, Milena, do you write about our common future which will never be, or is it that why you write about it?

(…) Incidentally, Milena, you must agree when you examine yourself and me and take soundings of the “sea” between “Vienna” and “Prague” with its insurmountably high waves.” (Prague, September 1920)”
Letters To Milena • Franz Kafka“One by one they were all becoming shades. Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.”
